This is such a good representation of how the rich steal the wealth.

"Trickle-down economy"

Pretty much. I feel like the very well idea of amassing is at odds with being egalitarian.

[–] Ensign_Crab@lemmy.world 104 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Rich asshole who has everything he could ever want, including a hat sees someone being kind to a child and rushes in to make sure the intended kindness goes to him.

He's like this 100% of the time, guaranteed. Being an absolute piece of shit like this is rewarded under capitalism, which is why he's a CEO.

A LOT of backstabbing in this guy's past.

[–] Revan343@lemmy.ca 17 points 6 days ago

Frontstabbing too I bet

If this is how he treats a small boy at a tennis match while being filmed, imagine how badly he treats his customers and staff behind closed doors.

Wait, isn't this actually a crime, a robbery? The hat was very clearly being given to the child, not to the asshat.

When he took it, it belonged either to Kamil Majchrzak, the tennis player giving the hat to the boy, or to the boy, Brock, it was being given to. I'd say a police investigation and a punishment of some kind would definitely make sense here. If you steal from a child like that, you should get registered as having made a crime.

lol silly, rich people cannot commit crimes. Otherwise they wouldn't be rich!

Ban him from buying tickets or being the guest of anyone from all professional tennis competitions for unsportsmanlike conduct.

This is liie the killing thing, kill one perosn its.murder, kill several thosand you're a war hero.

Fuck over one kod, you're a monster, fuck over millions you're the Presodent of the US, or in charge of a bank or medical insurer.

These asshats get this rich by being like this, not sure why the angst in this specific case.

[–] ozymandias@lemmy.dbzer0.com 12 points 6 days ago

people are simple, especially emotionally.
show someone a powerpoint presentation about how this guy is stealing from millions of children: little to no response.
a clear video of him stealing directly from a child: people mad.
plus there’s a lot of videos of people catching a baseball and giving it to the nearest kid… having some sports hero’s hat as an adult is nothing compared to the joy a kid would get out of it.

Not sure why the angst?! Do you not understand psychology 99?? People relate FAR MORE to 1v1 situations like this than the 1vX situations like capitalism.

The same is true in a positive direction, too. That's why it's "The Hero's Journey", not "The Proletariat Won".

Go here and translate to your favorite language. Unless that polish.

In case anyone's as lazy as me here is the summary.

He said that's just how the world works and child should have simply been faster. Note that child already took the hat first and he took it from the kid's hands a full second after.

He also said anyone else would do the same.

Also not written but he is one of the sponsors of this team and could meet privately with the player whenever he wants. So he just wanted to steal from a child that day.

Love how the company name just translates to "drug use" in Swedish.
